On Saturday the 17th of December from 10am until 9pm there is a Christmas Fair being held at The Rayrigg Rooms in Bowness-on-Windermere with a wide variety of stalls run by local traders and businesses, from vintage clothes to linen and lace, stocking fillers to shoes! And of course Fireside Bookshop will be there with a great selection of books and ephemera, there will be mulled wine available all day and a tea shop selling delicious cakes as well as live music all day and a Santa's Grotto between 5pm-7pm so if you're in the area come along for a great day of shopping, supping and supporting independent traders!

This Christmas Fireside Bookshop and motties are joining forces to bring you giftsets of motties (beautiful handmade slippers) and a vintage classic novel or handmade commonplace book. An unusual, ethical and enjoyable gift for your loved one this Christmas. Please follow the link to the motties page for further information. What better gift to keep you entertained and toasty on these cold winter nights!
